Smart Pad on mobile

Hi there,

Do you have a link to your site?

Thanks,
Dave

Yes

This looks fine on my desktop PC and on a Kindle Fire I tried, but on my Samsung Galaxy S mp3 player the portrait orientation image (pink hydrangea flowers) is small with padding on the left, right and bottom.

Sorry – that seems to have turned my whole paragraph into a link but it should still work.

Hi Jane,

Do you know exactly which version of the Galaxy you have and/or Android version.

It might be that it’s outdated and unable to have a specific layout.

Thanks,
Dave

Yes you could be right – I’ve had it for nearly 3 years.

It’s a Samsung YP-G70CW Galaxy S MP3 player with Android 2.2

I’m not too worried about whether or not I can view the slideshow OK, so long as most visitors to my site can. Maybe it’s a quirk to do with my device – in which case it’s fine.

Otherwise, I may need to stick with the white borders for portrait images.

Hi Jane,

2.2 has a distribution of 0.4% so you should be ok:

Like you said, if those users can still see the images then that’s the main thing.

Thanks,
Dave

Thanks, Dave.

Let’s hope that’s the reason. I suppose if most people were having problems you’d have heard about it now. So I’ll assume it’s just because of my device.
